Content descriptions

General Note:
"Written by minimalism expert and celebrated author Courtney Carver, Gentle is the "don't do it all" self-help book you need to live with less stress and more ease, less overwhelm and more joy by uncovering the Gentle You. Grounded in self-compassion and a fierce commitment to less, becoming the Gentle You isn't about taking the easy road. It's a practice of real self-care that, over time, will soothe your nervous system and strengthen your relationships. Organized into three parts--Rest, Less, and Rise--30 challenges and simple practices will help readers radically and (yes) gently shift their pace, headspace, and heart."--Provided by publisher.
